- Dark colored Towels (52 x 27 inches preferred)
- Bath Size bars of Soap (in its original wrapping)

This is not a "soup kitchen" ... but our way of connecting with our community. Our meals are cooked from scratch. Please come as you are and remember, you don't need to be a member or a Lutheran to attend. We began this new ministry for our community in October 2013. Everyone is welcome and it's FREE! (*Good will donations are welcome.)
We hold an annual CPARC fundraising event . It's a 3 mile "fun run/walk" that is open to everyone - families with strollers; people with dogs (on a leash); or people who just like to walk/run at your own pace. Please know that 100% of the donated money goes directly to the 4 Churchtown CPARC residents.
Pastor Debbie and a dedicated group of volunteers visit our homebound members to talk and offer holy communion. If you would to be part of this ministry or send a birthday card to them, please contact Pastor Debbie.
This dedicated group of volunteers discuss and plan all of our worship services (Sundays, holidays, Holy Week, etc). We also are part of the Boiling Springs Ministerium that shares 3 services a year: Ash Wednesday Service is hosted by us at Mt. Zion Lutheran Church; Good Friday Service is at St. John Lutheran Church (Boiling Springs); and Thanksgiving Eve Service is at Otterbein United Methodist Church (Carlisle). St. Patrick Roman Catholic Church (Carlisle) does not host a service but actively involved in these services. All of these evening services begin at 7 pm. Please join us!
